Desire Have you guys heard this outtake? Omg it's great! I haven't listened to it in a while and I just heard it again and I forgot how good this song was! When did he do this around'85 or '86 I'm guessing? It sounds like something that could have been around that time. | |

It's from 1984, and was officially released by the Family on their LP  | |

Thanks for the info. I don't have the Family CD but I really liked Prince's version. Is the Family's version just as good? | |

I haven't heard Prince's version but The Family's version is fantastic. | |

Love the song I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Great song innit. Pretty much the same? Different (and better) drums on Prince's version, even more Eric Leeds, I tell you Prince's version of Desire is KILLER. The Family version drags in every way. Keep your headphones on. | |

SUPER killer. His voice on "what must I do to convince you? Isn't the expression on my complexion enough?" turns diamonds into Evian. It's absolutely incredible. Makes me WEAK!

My absolute favorite outtake...so smooth, great horns...far superior than The Family's version, imo...Princes delivery on this cut is truly something special... | |

Prince's version is great. It's one of those songs that when you hear it you just have to hit "repeat" and play it again.  When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. | |

Why on earth didnt he keep that little gem and stick it on one of his own albums? Woulda been great on ATWIAD... Damn! He gave a lot of good shit away in those days... |

It's funny, cuz it sounds like it would fit perfectly alongside some of the "Parade" and "SOTT" stuff. Hard to believe it's from '84. | |
